You know, I hate it when I'm not getting hours, but I also hate getting 20 hours a week. Damn, but there is no pleasing me!The upside: PAYCHECK.The downside(s): My new manager is a moron, everyone at my work seems to be getting sick, I'm still not fully trained, and did I mention my new manager is an idiot?Well, I'm still (barely) finding time to write. Still working on that novella right now... and I love my sexy characters... I just need to figure out some more about them.I'm not doing so hot on the sleeping thing. It's either too much or not enough.I have no idea what's wrong with my foot --but I finally get to see my doctor on Monday, which is exciting. Maybe he'll know what the hell it is.I picked up my old filthy habit again. It keeps me from killing people.I'm walking four to five miles a night with my sis for stress relief and weight loss. I'm down a few inches in some places and five pounds in total. We've only been at this for about a month.I'm vaguely obsessed with Lord of the Rings at the moment. It might be because Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch are in the Hobbit films though.No, I'm kidding: it's because of Orlando Bloom, Viggo Mortisen, and Hugo Weaving.Yes, yes. Hormones on parade and all that.I learned how to drive stick-shift, which is interesting.I've been driving myself to work this week, and it has been an experience. We had fog thick enough to cut with a spoon this morning, and I got to drive through it. Then I had to pick up my sister this afternoon --in an automatic, of course, so I spent the entire drive looking for the non-existant clutch peddle....I think that's pretty much everything?I'll catch you all on the flip-side, my darlings.A Most Diligent Sinner,~Sins~
